No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection. Thank you for supporting the Board.

any date on it? It looks like one of his earlier pieces. Haven't seen Charles for a couple of years, hope he's still doing OK, he's got to be about 75 by now and last time I saw him he was still making a lot of glass.

Thanks for the kind comments and excellent description Sue. I wish you could see it in person as the colors are gorgeous! Unfortunately, the pics don't do it justice. And yes, it compliments my Loetz pieces beautifully.

That is lovely. 1990 is not vintage to me. I own his vases from the early 1970 s. 1972 is the earliest I have seen. About three years ago we stopped at the factory. We watched a perfume bottle made and bought a paperweight. Charles was sitting in his office and told a man that "the gas company loves me!" Go figure! My best memory is walking across downtown Grand Haven, Michigan to an ice cream stand and he bought me ice cream.
